Acana Pacifica is designed for those who want a daily diet centered on fish as the primary nutritional component. The recipe emphasizes high-quality animal proteins and natural sources of Omega-3 (EPA/DHA), which help support the skin, coat, and the body’s inflammatory response. The grain-free approach minimizes the use of grains, focusing instead on functional and easily digestible ingredients; the kibble is designed to be appetizing even for the pickiest dogs.
The balanced nutritional profile helps to:
-
support muscle mass with high-biological-value animal proteins;
-
promote supple skin and a shiny coat thanks to natural omega-3s from fish;
-
contribute to digestive well-being with selected fibers and a formulation designed for easy digestibility;
-
provide steady energy for your dog’s daily activities.
Acana Pacifica is a complete food: it can be used as the sole basis of a meal, or alternated with or combined with complete wet foods to increase variety and hydration while maintaining the proper caloric balance.

Recommended Daily Amount
When changing your pet’s diet, it’s important to make a gradual transition, as the digestive system needs time to adjust to the change in diet and the higher nutrient levels in ACANA. Over a 5- to 7-day period, gradually mix in ACANA, increasing the proportion each day, so that by the end of the 7 days, 100% of the meal consists of ACANA.
